Re: Private Key lost one character

i'm sorry i'm not a programmer Cheesy

, any open source tool available to do that?

Do you have bitcoind running on a linux server?
In that case, something like this might work:

Code:

for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "yourkey"$i ; done

Bravo! Many thanks! Grin

, i don't have bitcoind running now, but i will get one to do so.

That will only guess a final character (i.e. is assuming you missed the very last character only). If you are not certain which character you missed then you'd need to basically repeat like this:

Code:

for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "y"$i"ourkey" ; done
for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "yo"$i"urkey" ; done
for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "you"$i"rkey" ; done
for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "your"$i"key" ; done
for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "yourk"$i"ey" ; done
for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "yourke"$i"y" ; done
for i in `perl -e '$,=" ";print +(A..Z),(a..z),(0..9)'` ; do bitcoin-cli importprivkey "yourkey"$i ; done

(hope that makes sense and of course the first character is always going to be the 5)

Indeed, i'm going to do so. The missing character is not really the last character but somewhere inside the 50.
Your guys are awesome.
